Today was an exceptionally clear day in the central United States for this SeaWiFS overpass. It was on the edge of this pass, but you can still see the rather large slug of dark flood water accumulating below Cape Fear, NC following Hurricane Floyd. Also of interest:. Light blooms or whitings in the Great Lakes Light Mississippi River runoff over the Dead Zone Light several small smoke plumes (fires, power plants, mills, refineries) Light most major cities visible as gray patches Light the bridge across Lake Ponchartrain is just barely visible Light Mississippi watershed drainage pattern.
